AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present patent is about an improved online system that allows users to watch videos and answer surveys. The system has various features to make sure users watch the videos and respond to the surveys. Users can also connect with the brand through phone calls, text messaging, and social media platforms. The system uses eye-gaze tracking and recording of user images to gather data on user behavior during video consumption. Potential users can be qualified for viewing videos based on demographic conditions, topics of interest, and engagement with other video surveys. Overall, the system improves the user experience and collects valuable data for brand engagement.

Problems solved by technology

Although video social media applications are available, there is very little ability to incorporate video into more sophisticated functionality.
While this is a powerful capability, it is generally limited to text or email surveys.
There is very limited ability to incorporate video into the situational awareness or online survey features.

Embodiment Construction

[0012]The present invention may be embodied in an online situational awareness and video survey system that uses a network-based instant response controller to communicate with mobile communication devices, such as smartphones. The mobile communication devices are associated with user profiles, such as social media profiles, containing demographic data and topics of interest for associated users. A video survey requester (also referred to as a customer) obtains situational awareness data that typically includes demographic or topic or interest statistics for mobile communication devices located in a geographical area of interest specified by the requester. The requester may also specify a target demographic objective and a video survey that is presented to participating mobile communication devices through a dynamic polling algorithm that iteratively adjusts the target audience to automatically “hone in” on a survey result that meets the target demographic objective. The video surve...

Abstract

Video features encourage and ensure that survey videos are viewed in full. The survey answer block and video rewind, forward fast and mute are disabled during the video presentation. With the user's permission, telephone calls, text messaging and browsing may also be disabled during the video. Interactive responses may be required at various points in the video to ensure that the viewer is paying attention. The viewer's image may be recorded or eye gaze may be tracked while viewing the video. Candidates may be qualified for viewing videos and selected in a priority order by meeting certain demographic conditions, having certain topics of interest identified in their social media profiles, agreeing to post-video direct contact, and having participated in prior video surveys. Potential candidates may be qualified by answering qualifying questions, viewing a teaser video, or responding to a prompt asking them to opt-in to the video survey.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to online situational awareness and survey systems and, more particularly, to an online situational awareness and video survey system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Many people today carry sophisticated mobile communications devices, such as smartphones and tablets, almost all the time. These devices provide a wide range of functions in additional to traditional telephone calls including location tracking, social media, video player, email, text, and so forth. Although video social media applications are available, there is very little ability to incorporate video into more sophisticated functionality.[0003]Situational awareness and instant response systems have been developed that allow a user of a mobile communications device to obtain real-time information about the users of other mobile communications devices in selected areas of interest and engage them in online surveys. For example, a user may obtain real-time demographic d...
